Trading.
I think "The Guide" started the destruction of trading as I knew it in the early '60's as an 11 year old. Back then, we all knew that cards were a penny each when they came in a pack of 4 with a stick of gum. It didn't much matter if you had a Killebrew that I needed, and I had a Bob Turley that you needed, the deal was done, since we both came out ahead getting cards we needed if they were just dupes to you anyways. The Guide started the demise, later to be followed by the complete devastation of trading when grading finished the job. Greed and the need to come out ahead dug the hole in the cemetery for trading.
